If the subject or background is dark, the camera flash will operate automatically.

If a subject or background is dark, the camera flash will work automatically and will reduce the red-eye effect by using the red-eye reduction function.

The flash fires regardless of available light. The intensity of the flash will be controlled, according to the prevailing conditions. The brighter the background or subject is, the less intense the flash will be.

The flash will operate in conjunction with a slow shutter speed in order to obtain the correct exposure. When you take an image in a condition with poor light, the camera shake warning indicator ( ) will display on the LCD monitor. We recommend using a tripod for this function.

The flash does not fire. Select this mode when capturing images in a place or situation where flash photography is prohibited. When you capture an image in a poorly lit condition, the camera shake warning indicator ( ) will display on the LCD monitor. We recommend using a tripod for this function.

Important notes

Be sure to observe the following precautions!

ƈThis unit contains precision electronic components. Do not use or store this unit

in the following locations.

- Areas exposed to severe changes in temperature and humidity.

- Areas exposed to dust and dirt.

- Areas exposed to direct sunlight or the inside of a vehicle in hot weather.

- Environments where there is high magnetism or excessive vibration.

- Areas with high explosives or highly flammable materials.

ƈDo not leave this camera in places subject to dust, chemicals (like naphthalene

and mothball), high temperature and high humidity. Keep this camera with silica gel in a hermetically sealed box when not planning to use the camera for a long period of time

ƈSand can be particularly troublesome to cameras.

- Do not let sand get inside the camera when using it on beaches, coastal dunes, or other areas where there is lots of sand.

- Doing so may result in failure or may permanently render the camera unusable.

ƈHandling the camera

- Never drop the camera or subject it to severe shocks or vibrations.

- Protect the large size LCD monitor from an impact. When this camera is not used, keep it in the camera case.

- Avoid obstructing the lens or the flash when you capture an image.

- This camera is not waterproof. To avoid dangerous electrical shocks, never hold or operate the camera with wet hands.

- If you use this camera in wet places, such as beach or pool, do not let water or sand get inside the camera. Doing so may result in failure or may permanently damage the unit.

Page 61

Important notes

ƈ Camera Maintenance

- Use a soft brush (available from photo stores) to gently clean the lens and LCD assemblies. If this does not work, lens-cleaning paper with lens cleaning fluid can be used. Clean the camera body with a soft cloth. Do not allow this camera to come into contact with solvent materials such as benzol, insecticide, thinners etc. This may damage the body shell of the camera and also affect its performance. Rough handling can damage the LCD monitor. Take care to avoid damage and keep the camera in its protective carry case at all times when not in use.

ƈ Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the camera.

ƈ Under certain conditions, static electricity can cause the flash unit to fire. This is

not harmful to the camera and is not a malfunction.

ƈ When images are uploaded or downloaded, the data transfer may be affected by

static electricity. In this case, disconnect and re-connect the USB cable before trying the transfer again.

ƈ Before an important event or going on a trip, you should check the camera

condition.

- Take a picture for testing the camera condition and prepare extra battery.

- Samsung cannot be held responsible for camera malfunctions.

ŝ60Ş

ƈ Extremes in temperature may cause problems.

- If the camera is transferred from a cold to a warm and humid environment, condensation can form on the delicate electronic circuitry. If this occurs, turn the camera off and wait for at least 1 hour until all moisture is dispersed. Moisture built up can also occur in the memory card. If this happens, turn off the camera and remove the memory card. Wait until the moisture has dispersed.

ƈ Caution on Using the Lens

- If the lens is subjected to direct sunlight, it could result in discoloration and deterioration of the image sensor.

- Pay attention not to get fingerprints or foreign substances on the surface of the lens.

- When the lens cover opens, the outer lens that you can see is for auto focus. When using or cleaning this camera, handle the outer lens with care.

ƈ If the digital camera is not used for a long period, an electric discharge can

occur. It is a good idea to remove the battery and the memory card if you do not intend using the camera for an extended period of time.

ƈ If the camera is exposed to an electronic interference, it will turn itself off to

protect the memory card.
